Those men of old were not practitioners of the lawlessness we see in America today from our very judges and law enforcement and governing officials throughout the nation. Pragmatic political ideology is now the dominant force, not law.
God gave to Abraham the victory, not someone else property. That is exactly what the context shows to us in the words Abraham's conversation with Melchizedek. Abraham did exactly according to the Law by returning to his neighbor what he knew was his neighbor's property. To paint Abraham as just anothr product of that culture around him is to bring down to the dirt a man you have never met, nor do you know.
Those sections of those very statutes state why they were written. That is what you have overlooked.
And in that, he nowhere demanded they study and follow the Law of Moses, for he would then be contradicting himself in other of his epistles. I won't argue this endlessly with you as you obviously have no ears to hear ALL of what Paul had to say on the subject. This hand-picking of verses out of their context at the exclusion of so many others is a very typical tactic of you legalists, and it's a dead end road trying to convince you otherwise.
Your arguments are groundless. You have no clues as to spiritual things that Paul and the other apostles specifically addressed. The blinders on either side of your eyes do indeed effectively blind you to the broader spectrum of truth of which Paul addressed. It's pointless. You simply are deaf to anything outside that little compartmentalized box of your religion.
Oh well...

My arguments are based solely on scriptures, many of which you refuse to even acknowledge, much less examine.
I am deaf to the "other voice" in the garden who preaches to the world that God's Word's can not be trusted and God's Commandments are a Yoke of Bondage that makes people Blind.
You are zealous for your religious philosophy, I will give you that. My hope in that in the private confines of your own home, when no one is watching, that you might actually consider the Scriptures I have posted and the warnings about following the religious philosophies of men.
God did not plead with Israel to place their Faith and Trust in Him, and save them from Egypt, just to place 613 burdensome, grievous, impossible to follow Laws on their Necks, and then slaughter them by the thousands when they didn't keep them. At least not the God of the Bible. This religious philosophy of yours is a deception.
This whole exercise with you has helped me a great deal in that it has grounded my Faith and Belief in the Christ of the Bible even more.
Thank you for that.
